Chapter 699: Legendary Battle 3 (2/2)
”The real [One Sword] probably already died by now. It seems like this golden skeleton has its own mind, and it is in control of [One Sword]'s body. What is its goal? Why? Why did it direct this Xuan'ge of the Ormond Empire to my Chambord City?” Fei thought.
After considering the overall situation, Fei no longer tried to hold back anything.
He waved his war hammer and unleashed the power of the h.e.l.l Mode Barbarian, knocking his opponent more than 100 meters away.Then, he reached out his left hand, and an ancient scroll appeared in his hand. He swung this scroll and forced it open, and a series of G.o.dly runes that were filled with life energy dashed out and enveloped Fei.
In the next moment, Fei's power skyrocketed and reached another level.
This powerful and ancient scroll was the reward from a quest in Diablo World. After Fei completed the same quest in Normal Mode and Nightmare Mode, he got two scrolls that were filled with G.o.dly life energy. They could permanently increase all of Fei's resistance by 10%, and he had saved them for unique situations and emergencies.
Finally, Fei felt like today was the day that he had to use one of them, and his overall combat ability increased drastically.
When Fei and [One Sword] went back to battle, Fei was able to suppress his enemy completely.
The [Immortal King's Stone Crusher] was being swung around so fast that it was like a flash of lightning, and the power in it could shatter a mountain.Every time Fei swung it, the red runes that were engraved on its surface left a series of afterimages in the air, powerful enough to harm souls as well.
As the battle prolonged, [One Sword]'s golden bone fists had small cracks on them after sparks had been flying around for a while, and they were dented as well.
As Fei's power increased, his opponent finally couldn't handle him anymore. As their strikes collided, it seemed like the golden skeleton that was inside [One Sword]'s body was being shaken, and it was almost being hammered out of [One Sword]'s body.
Right now, the golden skeleton was at a disadvantage, and it could only be beaten; it couldn't fight back effectively.
”No… This is the power of a G.o.d! You are only a mortal! How can you be capable of such power!?” Powerful yet angry spirit energy exploded out of the golden skeleton, and it expanded and roared in all directions. Fei was the closest to the golden skeleton, and he was able to interpret the spirit energy and understand what this golden skeleton meant.
Tink!!!
This last hammer strike knocked a dash of golden light out of [One Sword]'s body.
Just as Fei expected, this dash of golden light was that golden skeleton which was pinned to the ground by that half-broken mysterious stone pillar.
The only difference was that the broken bones on this skeleton recovered, and it was complete and shiny; it no longer looked dead like when Fei first discovered it beside the Mythical Altar.
Also, since it completely recovered, the emptiness in its eye sockets was replaced by burning dark-red flames.
When Fei looked at these two clouds of flames, Fei sensed destruction, violence, and a desire for revenge.
This golden skeleton stared at Fei with its 'eyes' for a second, and it wasted no time.
It easily tore open the s.p.a.ce with its injured hand bones, and it dived into the void and disappeared.
Fei didn't have time to chase after it. Instead, he sent out a cloud of golden energy and softly lifted the remaining body of [One Sword] that was falling from the sky.
To Fei's surprise, [One Sword] didn't die yet; he was still somehow alive.
Now, [One Sword] was finally back to his human-like self. Even though his aura was weak, he went back to his former self where he was lonely and desolate, proud and prideful.
As he opened his eyes, Fei could tell that the real [One Sword] was back. He was cold like ice, and no one could mimic this temperament of his.
”King of Chambord, long time no see!” [One Sword] said slowly with a smile on his face.
[TL Notes: Hey guys, here is the first release of the day. I saw some comments regarding the current plot, so I think I will address it here since many of you might have the same questions. First of all, the enemies came from the South, but they must came fast since they are much more powerful. Even though Fei could get the info from Kashya real quick, the information delivery system at the Letter Office might still be slow since the teleportation system is stilling being tested. Therefore, when the frontline intelligence workers got the information, they might not have pa.s.sed it back to St. Petersburg in time before Kashya came to Chambord for the wedding. This is my explanation. There might be holes in it, but it is the best that I can come up with. Second, I guess this chapter explained by [One Sword] became so powerful all of a sudden.
